🚧 TS4 CAS Override - Urban Homage Kit PartFlag Fixes -- [5/11] UPDATE REQUIRED!
Notice Me, Senpai:
🎁 I'm being lazy, here's a Goodie Bride Folder_SP50_AiO_v01-240418 - THIRTY-SEVEN (37) overrides included. I did the whole Kit but a whopping EIGHT (8) CAS items are actually "PartFlag OK" so I've not included those. I say "PartFlag OK" because I've been sharpening a hatchet for the day I figure out that tummy bloat mesh. I mean to end it's existence.

Release Notes:
⚔️ This requires more money and a !@#$ load of loyalty to this !@#$ing company that had the audacity to say they wouldn't make TS5 unless TS4 was "financially successful" ten years on 🇦 🇰 🇦 TS4: Urban Homage Kit. I'm in a mood. EAxis puts me in a mood.
🚀 Forged under Update 4/16/2024 - PC: 1.106.148.1030 / Mac: 1.106.148.1230
⚙️ Outfit Safety is ❓ A MIXED BAG!
⚙️ The Goodie Bride Folder link contains individual .PACKAGE files for every CAS item override. These can be tossed into your Mods folder directly from download. However, if you select all files and smash the download button, Goodie might .ZIP archive it. Windows Explorer on Windows and Finder on Mac can open/extract .ZIP archives. Place the extracted files into your Mods folder.
🧬 I will review these files and update them accordingly as the game is officially patched. I assume EAxis will officially fix the Shadow Map on yfBottom_SP50Latex. They fixed the Bug-Eyed ExcludeFlag on the Goth Galore Kit hoodie. Only took them forever and a day.
🎯 The Endgame is one content release closer. Only sixty-how-many-?! left to go!

Description:
I've fixed the damned PartFlags. I fixed the damned Shadow Map on yfBottom_SP50Latex. See my full unhinged review here.
There are a couple other things, because of course.
EAxis has apparently abandoned DisplayIndex and SecondaryDisplayIndex, creating an even bigger disorganized mess in CAS.
DisplayIndex controls WHERE the items appear in the list in CAS. Ideally, EAxis would use an incrementally increasing numerical digit for every DLC in order of release, eg. Base Game = 0, Holiday Celebration Pack = 1, Outdoor Retreat = 2, Get To Work = 3 but apparently they can't even figure that out. I'll be doing this eventually, just not right now. I still need to get the numerical list correct. Right now, Urban Homage Kit uses DisplayIndex 0, meaning it mixes with EVERY other content release that uses 0, meaning ZERO order in CAS.
SecondaryDisplayIndex controls the Swatch order. If you take a look at the vanilla accessory swatches, you'll notice they're not all in the same order even though they have the same swatches (slight difference in swatch color for the rings IIRC). That's because they're all using 0, again!
EA_ZERO in the hizzouse, !@#$%es!
!@#$ery. Everywhere!
I'm forgetting something.
Outfit Safety:
The usual deal. Any items fixed by removing the appropriate Restrict Opposite Gender flags will unceremoniously be removed from your saved outfits upon removing the override. Outfit Safety is ❓ A MIXED BAG!
A Wall of SHAME-A:
Don't expect this for every DLC override going forward. I was irritated enough to list this !@#$ in some detail.
ACCESSORIES:
I've renamed the override files accordingly. That's what the "y(x)" is about.

I did a NoSpec Swatch add-on for this because the Specular Map makes it looks like cheap plastic. I got the idea from my upcoming Wings N' Things mod.

What's the deal with this HairColorOverride UV Space/AdditionalTextureSpace? It's a hat, EAxis. What is this?

I might do a Swatch edit for SP50Latex to remove the... mesh-y bit. It looks low quality and kills the vibe.

I don't understand why these unitards for Female and Male weren't also made into FullBody CAS items. I'll do it later.

There's one more item that I have no idea what it's function is. yfHairColor_SP50Wrap may or may not be linked to yfHat_SP50Wrap with that new HairColorOverride setting. It is hidden from CAS and listed as Hair... and appears to be a Hair Chop? I am so very confused. I was hoping HairColorOverride would be a functioning hair dye feature but no, it appears to be useless bloat, like the abhorrent tummy bloat mesh.
